For Poets: Yesterday

Yesterday, – when i was a kid,
I believed in everything:
I believed that tomorrow was gonna be alright;
I believed in my dreams;
I believed in my friends, parents,
And most importantly, –
I believed in God.

I know that my today –
A product of my yesterday,
And a yesterday in the making,
Should be lived in a way that
Tomorrow, when today becomes yesterday,
I would’nt regret believing in it –
My yesterday!
I believe in Yesterday!!
